You know, the csv file was exported from other database of a machine, so I really dont want to break it for it is a hard work. Every csv file contains headers and values. If I redesign the table, then I have to cut all the csv files into pieces one by one.

You need to rethink your table schema so you have fewer columns.
Perhaps you can combine some of them into arrays, for example.
JSON might be a useful option, too.
